firenice03 - thank you, missed that.
soumit - What do you mean by 'stopped at password' ?
If prompted to enter password (which should look a bit like this)
[sudo] password for stevef:
You need to type your user password and press enter to authorize the command.
If you've done that and something else is happening then ask again.

This is what is happening. The terminal is not allowing me to type in my password:

This is the same password you log on with or would have created at install..
The same you enter to initiate the Updates
Ensure caps are not on etc..
You can type your password outside the prompt - in the terminal to verify it is correct (should it be language or numlock)... ???

The password is not visible whilst being typed. Just type it anyway and hit Enter key.
